News Release
New Orleans, LA, May 2022
Colors that continue to remain popular choices in the New Orleans area range from verdant greens to soft blush hues to classic neutrals.
That’s according to Ace Hardware’s Regional Paint Preference Survey (ARPPS) on paint purchases for the first quarter of 2022. It tracks consumer preferences and ranks top colors for buyers over the period.
Neutral backgrounds for fabrics and materials are accomplished with White Dove OC-17, Simply White OC-117 and Litchfield Gray HC-78.
Classic greens, including Lafayette Green HC-135 and Lehigh Green HC-131, are key colors that can take on looks from traditional to contemporary, with frothy pastels such as Yarmouth Blue HC-150, Pale Berry 2103-60 and Ipanema AF-245 rounding out the mix.
“At Ace, you can not only find the right paint for your project and your budget, but you’ll also find all of the tools and accessories needed to make your project a success,” said Ace’s resident paint expert, Annie Hunter. “Our red-vested associates will make sure you get everything you need to paint in one trip – guaranteed, with our Extra Mile Promise.”
Ace Hardware is one of America’s leading paint retailers, carrying Benjamin Moore’s premium-quality paint, huge selection of colors and offering free paint delivery from more than 4,000 of its community stores, including seven in the New Orleans metro area.
